Choose hiking over work and ambition ‖ Taihu Mountain Wilderness Hiking Plan

Another Saturday is here in the blink of an eye—why not embrace nature and shake off that office fatigue? Rui recommends this fantastic mountain hiking route for you:

Yuhua Scenic Area → Moli Peak → Baisha Village → Luxiang Ancient Village → Twenty-Four Bends → Caowu → Yuhua Scenic Area

Starting from Yuhua Scenic Area, summit Moli Peak for breathtaking views of Taihu Lake. Pass through the quaint Baisha Village and Luxiang Ancient Village, then take on the thrilling Twenty-Four Bends before returning to the starting point via Caowu. Along the way, soak in the stunning lake and mountain scenery of East Taihu, immersing yourself in nature's beauty and wilderness fun. This 14-kilometer journey will leave you exhilarated and drenched in sweat—pure satisfaction.

Stay overnight at Ruijiang Courtyard Homestay near Yuhua Scenic Area, a charming Jiangnan-style garden retreat that’s both cozy and relaxing. The next morning, enjoy a delightful nine-square breakfast in the cool morning breeze—the ultimate indulgence.
